Urban, Anto
It's only a convenience thing for the net-installer as it's a real pain
to have to go hunting for a third party iso just to get the installer
running becuase of a network card requiring non-free firmware.
I think it would be good to warn and give an option of installing the
non-free firmware.
Code submissions of course are welcome :D

+1 for making this an option in the installer, deselected by default.
I like the idea of having a means to explicitly opt-in for non-free
firmware at install time for convenience, but not such firmware being
forced into the installation. The freedom of choice thingy, revisited.
Cheers,
Urban

I'd like a straw poll on whether we should include non-free firmware
in our installers by default.
I prefer that all non-free packages including the firmwares to be
excluded in the default installer. However, it would be great if there
were options to select them during installation process. Otherwise, I
will choose them later after the base installation is completed, which I
usually do.
